Beautiful winter weather!

Written by Kay Morgan on 1st December 2016

November has been a lovely month of many dry days with clear blue skies, unusual for this time of year I admit! We have had a few frosty mornings but it has been quite mild. Having a new puppy has meant I have been outside at various times of day from early morning to last thing at night. We have had some beautiful clear skies to enjoy the stars and planets. The experienced photographers have been getting some nice photos of the Northern Lights but I have not seen them this winter yet. They are seen through the camera much more often than we see them with the naked eye. We have enjoyed many bonnie Sunday afternoons at the beach with Ollie our Cocker Spaniel pup. He loves running along the sand and exploring the rock pools, the waves washing up to his feet and meeting other dogs. Everything is so new and exciting for a pup! The first time he landed in a rock pool he just stopped in shock as he realised his paws were cold and wet! The foam being washed up by the waves is another source of interest as he chases it up and down the beach. Then there are all the gulls and plethora of little birds to watch. So many new and intriguing things to explore........

We have 5 nights available in our luxury apartment, Kringla 3 from Saturday 15th October. The apartment is a lovely warm homely place to return to each evening after seeing all the sights. Harvest time can be a beautiful time to visit Orkney with golden fields, glorious sunsets and a chance to see the Northern Lights! However it can also be cold and wet and windy so take plenty warm waterproof clothes!
